Absorbent dressings Mölnlycke

Mextra

A superabsorbent dressing with a fluid-repellent nonwoven backing, a core consisting of superabsorbent particles and a nonwoven wound contact layer. Mextra Superabsorbent absorbs wound exudate through the wound contact layer, retains the exudate within the core and reduce the risk for maceration. The fluid-repellent nonwoven backing acts as a barrier and prevents exudate strike-through. The soft border seal makes it comfortable to wear and conform to the contours of the body. Mextra Superabsorbent maintains its structure and integrity without becoming bulky once wound fluid has been absorbed. Mextra Superabsorbent can be used in conjunction with compression therapy for venous leg ulcers.

Indications

Designed for a wide range of wounds that are moderate to heavily exuding wounds.

Contraindications

Do not use in wound cavities or on patients with a known sensitivity to the dressing or its components
